briangw Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Now My question is, is it possible of installing vista in my G drive without formatting or making a new partition with partition magic or whatnot. And if I do will my c: partition be hidden from me when in vista with G and when in win x(c:) will my G partition be hiddenany help is appreciated 586321991[/snapback] Yes, I set Vista up on my "F" drive that currently has apps on it. Everything still is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Sagy Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Dual Booting with XP aswell, installed from the boot mode, not a single error so far. Im running on an AMD AthlonXP 2400+, with 512MB of DDR333 RAM and ive given the beta a 10gb partition to mess around with. The lower end of this deal, though, is my gfx card, an ancient geforce2 mx400 64mb. While it does work (haven't tried actual games yet, though), i dont expect to see any eyecandy in action as its a dx7 card with zero pixel\vertex shading capability.

fred65 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 2.4GHz Celeron (skt 478) 256mb generic RAM 10GB partition (120GB drive) 128mb ATI Radeon 9200 SE AGP G8655FX-L Gigabyte M/B Runs surprisingly well on my low end system, but just a bit slower than XP. Boots slower too. No glass effects though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
